The Monroe Doctrine is a United States foreign policy position that opposes European colonialism in the Western Hemisphere. It holds that any intervention in the political affairs of the Americas by foreign powers is a potentially hostile act against the United States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monroe_Doctrine

@Phijkchu_Pikachu question
if Canada was not annexed in-whole, but you were given the option to get free US citizenship and be a dual cit (by virtue of being a Canadian citizen for 10+ years)
would you accept it?
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 @Phijkchu_Pikachu question if Canada was not annexed in-whole, but you were given the option to get free US citizenship and be a dual cit (by virtue of being a Canadian citizen for 10+ years)
No, I would not use it because I have no interest in living in the US
If I am moving from my shithole, I'd rather go somewhere nice
Pika, I think it is irrational to turn down free citizenship for any country
but I saw a couple Canadians saying that on Twitter, and wondered where you'd stand
Maybe I misunderstood the hypothetical
oh sorry, maybe I wrote it unclear
if this was a thing, and regardless of if I accepted it or not it was a thing, then sure whatever
I thought the question was would I think that is a deal Canada should go for
which the answer is no, because then we become the US in 5-10 years
yeah, the premise is that you don't get annexed, they just offer all longstanding Canadians dual citizenship
if you've been a Canadian citizen for at least 10 years as of July 4th, 2025
Dude, you know how much that would fuck my country up because of the indians playing the long game to get to the US
even more so than it already is
it would be a one-time thing
I am mad at trump, him meme starting a trade war with Canada gave the Liberals a rallying cry, and now they are projected to beat Bloc for official opposition btw
he fucking stole the funniest outcome from me
Trump/Rubio/Youngkin's team are trying to think of scenarios to incorporate just Alberta now
which is funny
Funny, but also will not happen
I do not see a single Canadian provice joining the US. Quebec, followed by Alberta going independent are way more likely events
I think the whole premise of you can rush integration is funny
I've said before, if this was of interest, we could do it on a 10-year timeline
easily
but there's zero chance anyone is serious
I do not think that is a serious effort Leg
I think that is very fringe
I think you could find a US politician in every single state who has made a push for succession if you look hard enough
you always have some retard
but they do 100% have a real team looking into it now
I found out today
and not just like 1 guy
thats funny
it's just Alberta though
I was honestly surprised at just how much backlash against the US from Canadians there has been over the trade war stuff, it exceeded my thoughts on how many people would care
people are super annoyed over it
I kinda saw the opposite, where there wasn't enough actual support to get the government to stand firm
Idk, from where I sit most people are firmly annoyed
felt about the same as how vocally opposed random Americans were
Trudaeu being harder on the topic than Poliviere swung the libs like 5-10 points in polling if that says anything
cosnider have drastically bad it has been for them
Election has not happened
He is in charge until the election
He resigned in the sense that he is stepping down as party leader (and probably just retiring) after the election
They should make Trudeau the US ambassador after he finishes his term Pika
I think we'd all like that
